About Lux Linea Design d'interni per clinica oftalmologica
Lux Linea è una clinica oftalmologica nel quartiere di Shibuya, a Tokyo, in Giappone. La clinica occupa una superficie lorda costruita di 250 metri quadrati e presenta una pianta a forma di trapezio rettangolo. Due lati sono completamente vetrati e la luce naturale intensa genera riflessi che nascondono gli interni. I pannelli trasparenti illuminati rispondono a questo problema. I pannelli sono lastre acriliche stampate con linee rette e illuminate sui bordi da strisce LED. Gli specchi sul soffitto e sulle pareti moltiplicano le linee luminose. I pannelli collocati accanto alle sedute della sala d'attesa garantiscono inoltre la privacy dei pazienti.

- Production Technology
- The space was created using drywall techniques and mostly finished in wall cloth.
The light panels are produced using transparent acrylic sheets with an inkjet printed pattern of straight lines. The edges of the panels are illuminated using LED tapes. The light travels through the inkjet pattern creating the illumination effect. The panels and by extension the light lines are duplicated vertically and horizontally using mirrors on the ceiling and walls. - Design Challenge
- The clinic operates mostly during daytime, when the bright daylight reflects on the glass, obstructing visibility to the inside. To counter this effect, a series of intriguing vertical lines of light are emitted from the inside attracting the curiosity of the passerby and creates a futuristic lightscape that reflects the doctors cutting edge approach to technology and human sight.
- Research
- Luxlinea is a response to two main challenges. The first one is related to the two facades that are completely glazed. This creates reflections during bright daylight that obstructs the vision toward the interior. But also, the need to connect the interior to its urban environment. The second challenge is the space symbolic and representation. The doctor conducts surgeries using cutting-edge technologies. The space had to be a showcase for the medical advancement.
- Inspiration
- The design was inspired by Shibuya districts iconic light scene and urban environment. The design was also inspired by kaleidoscopes and their reflective effects. And thirdly the design was inspired by the high tech capabilities of the doctors operating in this clinic. The intersection of these three factors gave birth to the immersive spatial experience that is not only offered to the users of the clinic but also to the passers by and the city dwellers.
